most popular months for weddings in Canada, and May is when wedding planning gets into full swing.

Of course, the spring and summer months are also full of anniversary celebrations as well, and we are proud to be celebrating not only our own 11th year anniversary on Broadway, but also the 200th anniversary of Denby tableware, one of the leading producers of fine stoneware in the entire world!

Weddings and anniversaries are a great time for celebration, and we’re pleased to present some fun wedding trivia, a guide for traditional and contemporary anniversary gift giving, and tips for setting up a first kitchen!
